Happy birthday to Michelle, one of our original Black Box members!
Here Michelle is rockin' the Lululemon outfit. I asked her to pose this way when I took this photo, so don't think this is how she normally appears while at the Box. (Normally she's making her cocktail arms bulge and flex, obvs.)

Happy Birthday Michelle! Have a great trip and come back to the Box soon!
Also, I am in for the rest dinner, plus one.
Happy Birthday Michelle!! Have fun in Portugal.
Happy Birthday, Michelle!

Happy Birthday, Michelle!
A quick plug for an event my gf is running at her wine store, Bottlerocket, on Thursday from 6-8pm:
"Get Some"- Free Absinthe and Wine tasting, usually includes cheese and crackers. This is a singles event and Melissa has been begging me to encourage some of the CF guys down there because they always end up with way more women than men at the tasting events. Apparently, they will have an optional Scrabble-esque game that gets you to mingle and talk to other people, in addition to sampling the recently legal absinthe. Amusingly enough, it was at this type of event that I met Melissa last year.
There is a similiar free event every Thursday through August, but I am particularly interested in this as I have never tried absinthe. The store is located on 19th street, just west of 5th ave. Their website is: www.bottlerocketwine.com

Happy Birthday Michelle -- Enjoy your trip to Portugal!
Happy Birthday, Michelle! Another Leo! (that explains so much). Sorry we'll miss you but I hope you enjoy your trip and the smell of fresh fish guts! ;-)
HBM!
Happy birthday!
I know a lot of you will be in Boston this Friday but for those of us who are gonna be around I'm checking in to see who is in for the rest day dinner. (I told Hari I would take the lead)
Right now I have: Me, Zach, Audrey +1, Brian, Craig +1.
Who else is in?
Elements people you guys are totally welcome - just let me know!!!
Happy Birthday Michelle!!!!
Happy Birthday, Michelle!!!
For those of you that are interested I told the girls at Lululemon I would give them a Free Crossfit/yoga class this Friday Morning at 8am. Show up at the store on 64th & Bway at 8am and we'll go to the park for a quick metcon and finish with some yoga until 9.
You don't even have to bring clothes because you can buy a new outfit right there. :)
Oh yeah! I almost forgot. Check out the burpee counter on my site. In case you forget how many burpees you need to do for the 100-day burpee challenge. :)
Hey you rest dinner left overs...
Im not going to Boston either.
So I'd be more than delighted to join you guys Friday night.
Who else is in?
Happy Birthday Michelle.

felt great for how little I've been heavy back squatting over the past few months. definitely ready to throw myself back into some more regular strength training this month.
thanks to the lunchtime crew for making this workout so much fun and for spotting me.
